Brotherly Advice - Scott and Cody Orton

About this episode

This episode features a conversation between two brothers, Scott and Cody Orton, discussing the benefits of peer mentoring in medical school.

At our medical school, we focus on community building a lot including intergenerational relationships. There is a clear benefit to having relationships with medical students who are further along in the process. Having near peer mentors who understand the road ahead is an invaluable resource. In this episode, we build upon this idea even more and have a special interview between two brothers first year, Scott Orton, and fourth year, Cody Orton, who have had the unique opportunity to attend medical school together over the past year. I hope you enjoy this final episode of the season about brotherly advice.
